Chapter 132: Go to the bookstore to buy books

"Hurry up and follow." Mu Wuchen said coldly.

"Yes, come right now." Gu Xiaoyou grabbed the hem of her skirt and wanted to run away.

Meeting Mu Wuchen's serious eyes in front of her, she immediately let go of her skirt and imitated women in costume dramas, taking small lotus steps and moving little by little to Mu Wuchen's side.

"Mr. Mu, they're here, let's go." Gu Xiaoyou covered his mouth with his sleeve and said in a pretentious manner.

Gu Xiaoyou's behavior was truly ladylike, but Mu Wuchen felt a little chilly for no reason.

He rubbed his fingers secretly a few times, trying to get rid of the awkwardness in his heart. Mu Wuchen responded lightly: "Well, let's go."

He walked towards the front yard with long strides.

"Mr. Mu, you left too fast, please wait a moment." Gu Xiaoyou deliberately held her throat and said coquettishly.

"Speak nicely." Mu Wuchen scolded him coldly with veins popping out on his forehead.

"Master Mu." Gu Xiaoyou stopped, wiped his eyes with his sleeves, as if wiping tears, and said after holding it in for a long time: "You are so fierce, you scare people."

Mu Wuchen's face turned dark instantly. He wanted to open his mouth to scold him, but he was afraid that Gu Xiaoyou would say something sweet again, so he glared, snorted coldly, and walked away.

"Hehehe." Gu Xiaoyou covered his face with his sleeves, shrugged his shoulders a few times, and snickered from inside.

Hum, let her learn the rules, and she will show them to him.

Let’s see who can’t stand it first.

Gu Xiaoyou's eyes were full of mischief, and he laughed silently a few times, rubbed his face, changed into a dignified appearance, and walked toward the front yard with small steps.

When they came to the front yard, they saw Mu Wuchen sitting on a chair. Zhou respectfully brought him a cup of tea. Liang'er was standing in front of him, with a solemn face and an ancient text on his back.

Gu Xiaoyou curled his lips secretly, this guy is really a master wherever he goes.

She pinched her throat, walked to Mu Wuchen's side in small steps, and asked softly: "Mr. Mu, why didn't you wait for me? I..."

"Stop, Liang'er is reciting." Mu Wuchen quickly interrupted Gu Xiaoyou and looked sideways at Liang'er: "Continue to recite."

"Oh, the sage said that a person who is not a sage can have no faults..." Liang'er continued to recite obediently.

Mu Wuchen pretended to be attentive and not disturb others. Gu Xiaoyou wrinkled his nose and slowly sat down on the chair.

"I've finished reciting the book." Liang'er quickly finished reciting the book and said crisply: "Brother Mu, did I recite well?"

"Yes, very fluent." Mu Wuchen said, and asked a few more questions. He was quite satisfied to find that Liang'er could draw inferences from one instance.

When he asked a few more in-depth questions, Liang'er hesitated and couldn't answer them. Mu Wuchen frowned and said, "Why can't you answer them? Didn't you learn the next lesson?"

Liang'er was startled by Mu Wuchen's cold face and opened her mouth timidly, not knowing how to answer.

"Don't blame Liang'er. After we came to the capital, we were busy opening a store and we haven't arranged an academy for Liang'er yet." Gu Xiaoyou couldn't stand it anymore and explained quickly.

"I see." Mu Wuchen's face softened slightly, he thought for a moment and said, "In that case, let's go to Xinhu Academy to study."

"Xinhu Academy?" Gu Xiaoyou said unexpectedly: "Is it the Xinhu Academy in the west of the city?"

Not long after arriving in the capital, Gu Xiaoyou asked someone to find out what the best academies were in the capital. Among them, Xinhu Academy was the best and largest. Unfortunately, Xinhu Academy was not easy to get into, unless you were a student from a famous family or a student with excellent academic performance.

You can enter only by passing the exam.

Liang'er came to the capital just in time to miss the exam. She was still thinking of applying for the exam early next year. Unexpectedly, Mu Wuchen had a way to let Liang'er enter Xinhu Academy.

"Well, it's Xinhu Academy in the west of the city." Mu Wuchen said calmly.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Mu." Mrs. Zhou said excitedly immediately, pulling Liang'er to kneel on the ground and thank her.

"You are too exaggerated, get up quickly." Gu Xiaoyou quickly stepped forward to help.

But Mrs. Zhou refused to get up: "Xiaoyou, I have to thank Mr. Mu properly."

"There are many ways to thank you, don't kneel down all the time." Gu Xiaoyou looked at Mu Wuchen anxiously: "You should ask them to get up."

Mu Wuchen put down the tea cup and raised his hand: "Get up."

"Thank you, Mr. Mu." Mrs. Zhou was willing to stand up. Gu Xiaoyou quickly helped her, then pulled Liang'er up and patted their clothes.

"Don't rush to say thank you. I can arrange for Liang'er to take the exam. Whether he can study in the academy depends on his own ability." Mu Wuchen said calmly.

"I will work hard." Liang'er replied crisply.

Gu Xiaoyou touched Liang'er's bun and praised: "Our Liang'er is so good, we will definitely pass the exam."

Liang'er scratched his head in embarrassment. Gu Xiaoyou praised him with a smile and asked Mu Wuchen, "Do you know what the academy tests are about? Do you want to buy some study materials for Liang'er to review?"

"Yeah." Mu Wuchen responded and asked Liang'er about the books he usually read: "There are indeed some books that need to be read."

"Then write down the bibliography and I'll take Liang'er to buy it." Gu Xiaoyou said positively.

"Don't be anxious." Mu Wuchen took a sip of tea gracefully: "There are many books, so I'll take you there."

"Okay, hurry up then." Gu Xiaoyou couldn't wait to pick up Mu Wuchen, tugged on his sleeves and walked out of the store.

Mu Wuchen looked at the soft little hands on his sleeves and gently raised the corners of his mouth. Gu Xiaoyou still made people feel at ease like this.

The three people quickly got on the carriage and rode the carriage to a bookstore.

Mu Wuchen and Gu Xiaoyou walked into the bookstore with Liang'er. Mu Wuchen took them straight to a part of the bookstore without being greeted by the waiter.

"Here are the books Liang'er needs." Mu Wuchen stood in front of a bookshelf.

"So many." Gu Xiaoyou felt dizzy when he saw the ancient Chinese books.

Liang'er happily walked to the bookshelf and looked at the books in front of her intently.

"You can read more of these books." Mu Wuchen instructed. Liang'er listened carefully, asking questions or answering Mu Wuchen's questions from time to time.

Mu Wuchen selected books based on Liang'er's level. Gu Xiaoyou listened for a while and felt a little confused and wanted to sleep.

"You guys pick it up first, I'll go to other places to look around." Gu Xiaoyou greeted them and hurriedly left the sleepy ancient literature area.

She strolled around the bookstore casually, picked out a few medical books, and scanned around aimlessly.

Seeing this, the clerk stepped forward and asked, "Miss, are you looking for a storybook?"

"Huaben? It's just an ancient novel." Gu Xiaoyou thought for a while, reading novels would be a good way to pass the time.

"Where?"
